I was wondering what to blog about so I shouted out to my facebook friends. My cousin suggested cheese.

I started wondering what could I blog about cheese?

I love cheese.. all kinds of cheese.

but was it blogworthy?

A SHORT HISTORY OF CHEESE

Legend has it that a desert nomad was transporting milk in a pouch made
from a sheep’s stomach. Eventually, the rennet in the lining of the pouch, combined with the heat of the sun, caused the milk to separate into curd and whey. Curious, and no doubt hungry, the nomad drank the whey and tasted the curd. We can safely guess that he enjoyed the experience!

If this is truth all I can say is thank you .

Here are some random cheese facts

THE SMELLIEST CHEESE

Vieux Boulogne, it comes from France

THE MOST EXPENSIVE

Pule, a cheese made from donkeys sold for $650.00 a pound at a farm in Serbia .

PROCESSED CHEESE

These are among my favourites.

Processed cheese has a longer life than average natural cheese.

The most common processed cheese products are cheese slices and cheese spread.

KOSHER CHEESE

It is my understanding that as long as a cheese is not made with rennet it is kosher. Please feel free to correct me .

I love cheese. All kinds of cheese, if you are a cheese lover like myself, check out this website.
